BIB-VERSION:: CS-TR-v2.0 ID:: STAN//CS-TR-88-1228 ENTRY:: April 24, 1995 ORGANIZATION:: Stanford University, Department of Computer Science TITLE:: A Parallel Algorithm for Finding a Blocking Flow in an Acyclic Network TYPE:: Technical Report AUTHOR:: Goldberg, A. V. AUTHOR:: Tarjan, R. E. DATE:: November 1988 PAGES:: 14 ABSTRACT:: We propose a simple parallel algorithm for finding a blocking flow in an acyclic network. On an n-vertex, m-arc network, our algorithm runs in O(n log n) time and O(nm) space using an m-processor EREW PRAM. A consequence of our algorithm is an O(n2 (log n) log (nC)-time, O(nm)-space, m-processor algorithm for the minimum-cost circulation problem, on a network with integer arc capacities of magnitude at most C.
